The cousins returned back home Vikram wanted to question Aditi and Kavin over there whereabouts but was stopped by Madhu who thought it is not the right time to question when they have Swathi's son naming ceremony round the corner.
By then Kavin's parent returned back to Coimbatore for the function. The house was filled with Happiness all around but yet Vikram was a little anxious as to what is brewing between Kavin and Aditi.
The Next morning , Sanjana woke up pretty early since after all she is going to meet her kutty ma . Her eyes caught the date displayed in the calender and blinked her eyes . She saw Varun sleeping peacefully holding her hands . She went closer to him in such a way that her breath fell on him. Sanjana pecked his temple and murmured
"Indha manga va indha date la dhan modha modha pathen ! Ivaruku enga nyabagam iruka pogudhu ! " She sighed and went inside the washroom.
By the time She came back , she couldn't find Varun in the room . She pushed away her thoughts thinking he would he getting ready in the other room.
She draped herself into a dark pink silk saree . With her hair dancing along to the tunes of her earrings . She walked up to the dressing table where she found a box with a note
" Few years back idhe naal la oru ponnu bunny mari thuli guduchutu enkita pesa vandha ! Apa teriadhu that this kutty pattas will sweep me off my feet with her little antics .... "
She then opened the box to find a pair of anklets . Sanjana immediately wore the anklets with all happiness that he still remembered there first meet. She found him slowly changing as Sanjana . She traced the note with her fingers while her cheeks turned tired turning into bright red .
She then heard the door opening and there he was he looked perfect in whatever he wears . He drew her towards him with his charming eyes .
Varun : Na marandhutenu dhana nenacha ?
Sanjana : Apdi lam onnum illaye ! She rolled her eyes
Varun : Unna pathi terium d ... Nee manasukula nalla thiturupa nu terium.
Sanjana : Seri apa na annaiku enna dress poturundha ?
Varun : Hey ippudi keta na eppudi solla?
Sanjana : Vayala dhan sollanum . She shrugged her shoulders.
Varun sighed heavily making Sanjana chuckle.
Sanjana : Pathingala oru dress color kuda nyabgam vaxhuka mudiyala enna aal neenga ? She questioned
Varun : Adingu... he told as he held her wrist
Sanjana : Seri vanga kelambalam ennaku kutty papa va pakka poganum.
Varun : Polam Polam ! Na eppudi irukenu sollave illa ? He asked in a warm tone making Sanjana's insides twist into knot.
Sanjana : Haan pakka okay dhan ! Edho onnu missing . She told as she placed her index finger near her chin while Varun glared at her.
She pulled Varun by his collar and her hands went up to moustache, she rolled it up a lit and gave a perfect sign look
Sanjana : Ippa pakka getha iruku ! She told leaving Varun flushed .
***********
Sanjana's entire family gathered in Swathi's house for the naming function.
Vikram Madhu and Sanjana noticed the eyes gestures between Aditi and Kavin while this time Aadi and Amru also got a doubt. They thought of confronting Aditi along with Swathi.
They asked Vikram to sit down since the new born baby's ears have to be peirced
Sanjana : Hey kutty ma ku ippa kaadhu kutavenam please ! She wailed
Vijay : Arambuchutiya? Papa ku onnum agadhu Sanjana.
While the baby's ears was being peirced , Sanjana couldn't bear seeing it and began clutching Varun's shirt and hiding her face against his chest. She was scared as to the pain that the baby will go through making Varun laugh internally of the melodrama she is doing.
Akash : Papa ku kaadu kuti romba neram achh ! Konjam talli ninuneenga na nalla irukum .
Amritha : Mamz kudumbume pakudu unga romance ah. She told slamming her head
Aadi : Yov Mama ! Social distancing matters . He told as Sanjana moved immediately not wanting to be trolled even more.
But all that Aadi was a death glare from Varun along with a smack on Akash's shoulder for pulling his legs.
Once there banters were over Swathi and Vijay were called to name the baby . The few minutes of eyecontact between Swathi and Vijay made Sanjana to come in awe.
"Siddhant Vijay" Both of them told in Chorus.
While everyone had happiness plastered on there face with the name selection and the elders became busy in looking after the guests who had arrived for the function.
Siddhant was crying profusely since he was missing is mother's warmth . Swathi gave the baby to Sanjana and had just sat down to eat . Not knowing what to do she began pampering siddhant with calling all the names that she could . The baby reduced its whine and began smiling while Sanjana brushed her nose against him . This scene was a treat to watch for Varun along with the rest of the cousins.
Akash : Dei kova padadha unnaya ve konjitu irupala ?
Aadi : Akash Anna! Ore munji ah konji avaluku bore aduchurukum.
Varun stomped Aadi's foot making him whince in pain while Akash knew one more word from he spells out , he ll have to face Varun's wrath.
*********
The elders were in the hall sitting together and the cousins just arrived down after playing with Siddhant.
Viji : Adhan Anna neenga Kavin ku ponnh pathadha , Kavin ku sonningala ?
Hearing this Aditi's eyes began watering . She stood rooted not knowing how to react. Was she late in disclosing her feelings to the family ? Why did Kavin not inform her about this ? There were thousands of questions as such running in her mind.
Seeing the change of reaction in Aditis face the cousins confirmed what they were thinking was right. Kavin on the other hand was shocked , he did not expect things to take turn like this in a drastic manner.
Sanjana held Aditis hand an took her to Swathi's room while the rest of them followed .
Aadi : Hey un munji en ippudi vaadi poiruku ?
Aditi : Adhulam onnum ilaye .. she stammered
Sanjana : Annaiku Suja veetuku dhan ponniya ? She asked a little sternly.
Aditi stayed quiet not knowing what to answer
Vikram : Annaiku Karpagam la unnayum Kavin ah yum sethu nanum Madhu pathom .
Aditi began crying not knowing what to do with the situation . Madhu comforted her by pulling into a hug.
Swathi : Ellam vishayam nee enga kita share pannuva ! Idha en d sollala?
Aditi : Akka first ennaku na indha vishayatha sonna eppudi ethupinga nu teriala .Adhe samaythula seri sollalam nu patha Sanjana vandhu depressed aytu Bangalore pona . Ellarum oru mari disturbed ah irundha period apa na solli edhuku kashta paduthanum nh sollala !
Swathi akka baby shower la dhan Varun mama kita matikutom. She told weeping
The entire group widened its eyes , since Varun knew it and he did not even utter a word . Sanjana looked lost since Varun had never mentioned anything as such
Varun : En Aditi nee vera ! Ennaya en da kola panna pora mari pakuringa ?
Vikram : Varun neenga en sollala?
Varun : Idhula na Sollradhuku enna iruku ! Unga brothers and sisters kula irukura bonding ennala disturb aga kudadhu. It was Aditi who was in love , avaluku share pannanum nu aasai irundha matum dhan ungaluku terinjurukanum, vera yaro solli terinja it will spoil ur relationship. He told justifying his action.
Aadi : Adhuku illa Mama ippa iva munnadi sollirundha , Veetla sollirukulam la ?
Vikram : Iva love pannadhu tappu illa, enga kita ivalavu naal sollama irundadhu dhan tappu .
Swathi : Seri ippa Kavin ku andha ponnu venam nu eppudiyavudhy veetla solli convince panna vaikanum Venkat Mama va.
They all together thought of convincing there parents who will in turn convince Venkat to not go ahead with the wedding.
Vikram : Ma kavin ku pathuruka ponnu ! Venam ma adhu eppudi avan manasula enna iruku nu teriama fix panradhu.
Raji : Dei ponnu romba nalla ponnu ! Enna konjam vaai jasti nu sonnaga . Nalla ponnu namma reject panna solalalma ?
Vikram : Ma ennaku terinju Kavin manasu la vera ponnu iruka pola . Namma adha terinjukama panna kudadhh.
Vikram tried convincing Raji but it went all in drain.
Sanjana : Ma ! Kavin ku namma Aditi ah senja nalla irukum la ?
Viji : Lusu ah d nee ? Avanuku dhan ponnu partachu la ! Ponnh designer ahma .
Sanjana : En namma Aditi kuda dhan designer . Avaluku enna korachal?
She continued arguing with Viji but nothing worked out.
As a last resort the cousins went to Vishwa's room .
Vishwa : Enna ellam sendu vandhurukinha ?
Aadi : Thata ! ... he dragged
Laksmi : Edho karyam aganum pola ?
Madhu : Pathi ! Kavin ku indha kalynathula Istham illayaam.
Laksmi : Ada avan sollatum kanna neenga en tension aguringa ! She told with biting her inner cheeks
Aditi thinking none of there indirect reasons will work out decided to confess the truth .
Aditi : Thata Paati ! Ennaku Kavin Mama va puduchuruku! Nanga 3 years ah love panrom . En tappu dhan modhalaye unga kita sollirukanum na sollala . Neenga eppudi ethupinha nu teriama irundha. Ana ippa puriyudhu na evalavu periya tappu pannen . She said her eyes watering with tears
Lakshmi and Vishwa thata began smiling while leaving the cousins shocked .
Vikram : Sanju rendu perum enna ippudi sirukuranga !
Sanjana : Ennaku enna terium ! Ivunga rendu perayum purinjukave mudiyala
Lakshmi : Kadaisiya neeye unmai ah un vaiyala sollita . She told as she hugged Aditi
Vishwa : Engaluku indha vishayam munnadiye terium. Kavin Venkat kita sollitan . First konjam vartham dhan nee yen enga kita solalla nu but nee unnakaga chose panna paiyan correct uh nu iruka modhu nanga en othuka matom ? He asked caressing Aditis hair.
The cousins were finally happy that it did not break out as a bomb like how they had expected to . What surprised them was it was always this young little brats who surprises the family but this time the cousins were shocked to see how they were taking things at ease.
They went down to see the family gathered together with kavin sitting in front
Aadi : Kavin Anna seriyana fraud uh veetla yarukum teriama enna ellam pannirukinha
Venkat : Venu unga ponna en paiyanuku kalynam panni tara samadham ah ?
"Venkat Mama ! Modha ponnu ku ! " Aditi exclaimed before Venu could speak
Amritha : Ayee en taste idha vida better okay va Aditi ? She asked
The entire family bursted out laughing seeing the banters that was going on .
Sanjana and Varun were standing together.
Sanjana : Love marriages la nadakuradhu is a bliss la ?
Varun : Madam enna ungalukum adhe dhana ?
Sanjana : Sir neenga marandutinga na ennaya venam nh soninga ! Veetla arrange panna marriage idhu ! Perusa pesa vandhutinga odiponga ! She chided
While Varun gave a caught look , if not for the family he wouldn't have married Sanjana was the truth
*********
The family finally returned back to there home and Vishwa thata had asked Varun and Sanjana to stay along with them.
Sanjana finally walked upto her room with tiredness written on her face and to top it off the Saree making her feel uncomfortable . She sat on the bed with a thud when Varun walked inside the room with a gaze that she was familiar of .
He was tormented by her the entire day , the anklets on her legs , the sounds it created while she walked around made his heart skip a beat !
Sanjana : Kita vandhinga kola paniruven ! En enkita Aditi vishayam share pannala ?
Varun : Nee oru loud speaker ellarukitayum sollita ?
Sanjana : Loudspeaker dhana ! Na poren . She tried to move but he took another step forward.
She was now trapped between him and the footboard of the bed. They were in such a distance that there breaths collided. She could have moved to the side but she was struck by the proximity of everything he was .
Adrenaline rush ! So much of that she nearly held her breathe , her heart was now a ticking bomb . His proximity affects her every single time like it is new to her.
She liked to talk while he preferred remaining silent . She was a hybrid and he wasn't. There was magnetic pull that both of them felt for until the distance between there eyes narrowed along with the space between there bodies.
